I can't believe we only have two weeks left! I will miss each and every one of you! As we move through the next two weeks we have several projects to finish. Our schedule will be somewhat flexible and you will need to work hard to complete the tasks listed below:

Thank you for making the first half of our year together fun, memorable and special! I love each and every one of you! Here are a few pictures from our Sing Along. We have such a great group, and I am so glad that you truly love and respect each other.

Here are some videos we made during class that show different methods you can use to multiply and divide. I encourage you to watch the videos, pause them to solve, then check your work with the video. After you feel confident, give yourself practice problems to try.

12:30-1:30 1/2 Study Island (odds) 1/2 SSR (evens) Switch as soon as you are finished to allow everyone time to complete the assessment.

1:30 Brain Break - Only Jordan should touch the board once you get gonoodle.com pulled up. She may select two breaks.

1:30-2:30 Writing

There are links for research on our Google Classroom. Use the links you need. Record information IN YOUR OWN WORDS! Be sure to write down where you found information. This is called "citing" the text.

Example: In the book Changing Ecosystems I found that an ecosystem is a
community of plants, animals and smaller organisms that live, feed, and interact in the same area or environment. This means (blah, blah, blah)

Each group will have 15-20 minutes to research on the computer. Use your time wisely. If you are not on the computer, you need to use books from the black basket up by the front white board. (I forgot to move them to the back carpet) Oops!

2:45-3:20 Watch the Government Video - create a new NKQ chart. Before you watch the video jot down a few things you already know about our Federal, State and Local Government. As you watch the video write down new information as well as questions.

I hope I get a wonderful report when I return on Friday!!! Don't forget your $.75 cents to wear something special or bring a board game! See you Friday!
